Compliance and digital security company, Prembly has announced a merger with Peleza, an East African background checks and KYB company serving some of the most notable international organisations in the region. According to the company, the strategic alliance will leverage synergies to enhance service delivery across multiple sectors, including finance, telecommunications, e-commerce and more.
According to an announcement shared with Technext, both entities will operate under a unified brand such as the Prembly Group. The financial details of this transaction weren’t disclosed but both teams confirmed it was of mutual interest.
“The merger with Peleza deepens our industry knowledge and elevates our strengths and technologies, empowering us to exceed our clients’ expectations worldwide. We are also very excited to have Marita, with over 15 years of experience, join our leadership team at the newly formed Prembly Group to drive innovation and enhance our strategic initiatives,” said Lanre Ogungbe, founder and CEO of Prembly.
The brand equity inherent in both companies will enhance their core strengths provide increased resources to invest in growth opportunities and make the new entity the most robust data infrastructure and compliance solutions company serving emerging markets.
Combining both teams with over 100 employees and operational offices in Uganda, Kenya, Nigeria and the US, Prembly Group will ensure the expansion of products and footprint globally.
According to the company, customers can expect enhanced capabilities in identity verification, background checks, risk management, and regulatory compliance solutions tailored to meet businesses’ evolving needs.
With almost a decade of experience in the East African region and key partnerships, including Uber, Bolt, and FedEx, Peleza brings a legacy of business excellence and strong customer relations. This merger further demonstrates increased growth opportunities within the continent and is expected to create significant value for shareholders, customers, and investors.
“This is a once-in-a-lifetime transformational opportunity to combine two great companies with great cultures, histories, and a promising future. The strength in both our numbers as one unified team, with both enterprises coming together to serve global markets and creating a combined culture that supports our single global vision of driving excellence in data integrity and regulatory compliance quite excites us!” said Marita Mutemi of Peleza.
Recall that Prembly acquired Tunnel, a company that facilitates legitimate data sharing among businesses 11 months ago, to bolster Prembly’s already extensive array of security solutions. Tunnel (Usetunnel Limited) was founded by Tobi Okedeji, Yusuf Badmos, and Ibraheem Lanre
At that time, the company noted that incorporating Tunnel’s services for Prembly would help it equip businesses with a potent tool for scaling by granting them access to real-time customer information from various sources via a unified API.
